Greetings Decision Maker,
An eight-month field study inside a 200-person U.S. tech company published in Harvard Business Review lands on three takeaways that the authors present as a surprising result:
-
Work expands as AI lowers friction
-
Work bleeds across time boundaries as tasks become easier to start
-
Multitasking rises as people run parallel threads.
I disagree with the authors' posture that these results read as a surprise. When a system strips friction from routine tasks, employees fill the freed capacity with higher-level responsibility, broader coordination, and faster cycles, helping them have more job security if they navigate this transition effectively and also enabling them to have more autonomy and creativity in their work. Along with these benefits come problems: the sharpest downside lands on entry-level opportunity as starter tasks disappear, a labor-market pattern already showing up in early-career employment impacts.

He shared AI concepts in a simple manner, shared a 7-Day Start Plan, and provided prompt examples that I will be able to use immediately. The webinar was tailored to our industry, and he shared relevant examples. I highly recommend Dr. Gleb to anyone who wants to learn about practical ways to incorporate AI into their daily work."

What's Up With Me
I felt proud recently of a major civic accomplishment, namely publishing an op-ed in the biggest newspaper in Ohio with my story about how AI helped save me from making bad decisions about a blood clot after medical professionals gave me bad advice about how to proceed. I didn’t name and shame any medical professionals, or even their organizations, because that wasn’t my goal. My goal was to talk about AI as a tool for personal health understanding and advocacy. Because I train companies on how to adopt AI effectively, I know about AI usage that can be applied to one’s personal life. So I built an AI agent with all of my health and DNA data uploaded as a knowledge base, and instructions on how the AI tool should use that data to give me advice and help me advocate for myself in the medical system. While that tool proved its worth already before this incident, with the blood clots it proved to be a real potential life-saver, literally and not figuratively. And the reason I’m proud is that I’m hoping it will inspire other people to set up similar AI agents to protect their own health and advocate for themselves within the medical system. It can save their lives, as it potentially did mine. |
